        @MotherJones I hope it's also mentioned that it was the Democrat Party that wanted to keep slavery in the south. Confederate Flag = Democrat

        @braden_rose @MotherJones Then you support the party that was in favor of owning slaves and fought to keep them. History Matters.

        @cpenina @MotherJones Lincoln was a liberal and a republican. If he were alive today he'd be a democrat.

        @cpenina @MotherJones I give up, how does Lincoln match up with republican views? Would he be for or against the confed flag?
